Abstract:
Conformational conversion of the cellular isoform of prion protein, PrPC, into the abnormally folded, amyloidogenic isoform, PrPSc, is an underlying pathogenic mechanism in prion diseases. The diseases manifest as sporadic, hereditary, and acquired disorders. Etiological mechanisms driving the conversion of PrPC into PrPSc are unknown in sporadic prion diseases, while prion infection and specific mutations in the PrP gene are known to cause the conversion of PrPC into PrPSc in acquired and hereditary prion diseases, respectively. We recently reported that a neurotropic strain of influenza A vi

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cervids and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle are prion diseases that are caused by the same protein-misfolding mechanism, but they appear to pose different risks to humans. We are interested in understanding the differences between the species barriers of CWD and BSE. We used real-time, quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) to model the central molecular event in prion disease, the templated misfolding of the normal prion protein, PrP c , to a pathogenic, amyloid isoform, scrapie prion protein, PrP Sc . We examined the role of the PrP c

Prion diseases are fatal infectious neurodegenerative disorders in human and animals caused by misfolding of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) into the pathological isoform PrPSc. Elucidating the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying prion propagation may help to develop disease interventions. Cell culture systems for prion propagation have greatly advanced molecular insights into prion biology, but translation of in vitro to in vivo findings is often disappointing. A wider range of cell culture systems might help overcome these shortcomings. Here, we describe an immortalized mouse neur

Abstract:
A central step in the pathogenesis of prion diseases is the conformational transition of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) into the scrapie isoform, denoted PrPSc. Studies in transgenic mice have indicated that this conversion requires a direct interaction between PrPC and PrPSc; however, insights into the underlying mechanisms are still missing. Interestingly, only a subfraction of PrPC is converted in scrapie-infected cells, suggesting that not all PrPC species are suitable substrates for the conversion. On the basis of the observation that PrPC can form homodimers under physiological condit

Prions composed of pathogenic scrapie prion protein (PrPSc) are infectious pathogens that cause progressive neurological conditions known as prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. Although these diseases pose considerable risk to public health, procedures for early diagnosis have not been established. One of the most recent attempts at sensitive and specific detection of prions is the real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) method, which measures the activity of PrPScaggregates or amyloid formation triggered by PrPScseeds in the presence of recombinant PrP.

Abstract:
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) or prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders caused by a change in conformation of the prion protein from the normal cellular form (PrPC) to a misfolded form (PrPSc). Prion protein has long been known as a copper binding protein. Although the functional implication of copper binding to PrP is not yet clear, it is believed that copper is an important cofactor in prion disease. Therefore, the aim of this work is to determine the potential role of copper in prion conversion. Copper can effectively bind to PrPC via histidine residues in the

Abstract Fossil energy systems generate some 80% or more of the world’s energy. The vast majority of energy-generating systems are heat engines, which depend on the combustion of the fuel, and the recovery of the heat of combustion. The fossil fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas; and they may be directly combusted, or converted prior to combustion. The conversion of coal may be to a liquid fuel, or, more commonly, to a gaseous fuel; the crude oil may be converted to a lower molecular weight liquid, or again to a gaseous fuel. The natural gas may be converted, in some cases, to a liquid fuel.

This is possible by using consecutive 1D, steady-state calculations for the characterization of the reactor performance.

Abstract:
Two-way catalysts or oxidation catalysts are the common after-treatment systems used on lean burn natural gas engines to reduce CO, VOCs and formaldehyde emissions. The study evaluates the performance of oxidation catalysts from commercial vendors for varying catalyst temperature and space velocity. For this study, a part of the exhaust from a Waukesha VGF-18 GL lean burn natural gas engine was flowed through a catalyst slipstream system to assess the performance of the oxidation catalysts. The slipstream is used to reduce the size of the catalysts and to allow precise control of temperature a

Abstract:
The Elastic Wave (EW) technology has a proven record of detecting longitudinal cracking in gas and liquid pipelines. Prior to the initiation of this project, the technology had been based on a 36" pipe diameter with conversion kits covering 30", 32" and 34". Bend passing capability was 3D back to back, changing to 5D on the 30" build. To extend the technology over a greater range of pipe diameters and to incorporate 1.5D bend-passing capability on the smaller sizes required a radical re-design of the whole system. The brief of this project was to design a system capable of operating over the s

Abstract:
In the global search for the right alternative energy sources for a more sustainable future, hydrogen production has stood out as a strong contender. Hydrogen gas (H2) is well-known as one of the cleanest and most sustainable energy sources, one that mainly yields only water vapor as a byproduct. Additionally, H2 generates triple the amount of energy compared to hydrocarbon fuels. H2 can be synthesized from several technologies, but currently only 1% of H2 production is generated from biomass. Biological H2 production generated from anaerobic digestion is a fraction of the 1%.

Full text
Abstract:
Hydrostatic test and In-Line Inspection are the prescribed integrity assessment methods cited in various Codes and Regulations and have been proven to enhance pipeline safety. But a significant number of pipelines across the world remain difficult to inspect and impractical to modify for inspection by the prescribed methods due to physical configurations or operating conditions. This research performs a state of the art (SOTA) analysis of NDE technology readiness considering physical and operational barriers and technology deployment from inside, outside or over pipelines, and the possible rol
